And as so much sacrifice is demanded of them, may we more clearly realize that the price of liberty is not cheap. May the stars and stripes be upheld as a constant symbol of the sacred ideals for which this world is now struggling, and may it also reflect the honor and gratitude which we bestow upon those men who are giving their all for us on the battlefield. We dedicate this book to all those who once carried the red and grey ... but who now, in a greater, more distant field, bear the red, white, and blue. catiiJu

Dr. C. N. Jensen, Superintendent We are now assured that the war will be won. Can we be equally assured that peace will follow? There are certain conditions that must be met for a continuing peace. Selfishness amongst nations as well as amongst individuals must be sub- merged. Power politics must be re- placed by a spirit of cooperation amongst nations, large and small. Brotherly love and religious attitudes must take the ascendency in the hearts of the people. Then and only then will victory in war be replaced by victory in peace. SUPERINTENDENT C. N. JENSEN A great part of this year's success should be attributed to the superintendent and members of the board of education, who have put forth so much effort toward the advancements of Jordan High students. Their coop- eration and untiring endeavors have been appreciated by all.BOARD OF EDUCATIONDr. C. N. Jensen, James C.Hansen, Cyrus W. Vawdry, Dr.Paul S.

The meetingsconsisted of business matters, musical renditions,and guest speakers, the most prominent of whomwas• Earl J. Glade, Mayor of Salt Lake City, whospoke to the girls on the subject of personality. AtChristmas time, a one-act play, under the directionof Miss Tuttle, was presented as part of the pro-gram. Later in the spring, in cooperation with theHome Economics Club and Miss Webb's gym class-es, the club gave a tea for the \"Mothers' andDaughters' Night Out.\" This year, the club hasbeen more successful than at any previous time. CHEER LEADERSBob Swenson, Mary Jane Dunyon, Keith Winn.Through s ven football and thirt en basketballgames, the cheer leaders, a team of three, led thestudent body in resounding yells to let the playersknow the school was pulling for them, and to let v ryon know we were from Jordan High.

As our part for democracy, Jordan also has a judicial department. The court, under the leadership of Judge James Day, has done an excellent job. The duty of the court was to keep order in the school at all times and to see that the students were kept satisfied.

Secretary PROM COMMITTEE Beth Bishop Delbert Crump Janice Rasmussen Jack Hurd Janet Jensen Midway in their climb up ... the juniors paused long enough in their dash around the halls to plan an unforgettable prom and an enjoy- able student body assembly. The juniors enjoy laughing at the sophs and ignoring the seniors. They have proved time and again in their past two years at Jordan that they are potential leaders, and are looking forward to their third -and ·last-year, when the responsibility of upholding the standards of the red and grey becomes theirs.

SOPHOMORE OFFICERS RAYMOND SIMPER President STARLEY BUSH Vice-President LAMAR JONES . . SecretaryBUSH SIMPER JONES This year's sophomore class is a solid affirmation that the requisites of a Beetdigger are being upheld. Although they had a tendency to mill around the lower hall without too much purpose, a strong bulwark of officers, teamwork, and a will to do, has brought them easily into the limelight. The sophs had an exclusive party last November that went over in a big way. The highlight of the evening was a floor show of fashions, modeled by some of the most \"feminine\" boys in the class. The officers presented an assembly in February to the student body, and in May planned the annual Sophomore Strut. .To the sophomores we say, \"Keep going-you're doing fine!\"Top row: Richord Arn old, Droper; Potsy And erson, Midvale; Maren Atkinson, East Midvale; Dorene Anderson , Murray ; Robert Alex -ond r, Midvole; Chollos Adom s, Union; Lilo Archibald, Granite; Brice Ashely, Crescent.
